Idk if anyone had a similar problem before, but I live in EU by the countryside, at first there were only a few but now it happens more and more often to see drones passing over my house, I am sure they are civilian drones because law enforcement has no reason to use them since the area is quiet (and honestly I doubt they would be able to do so), however it bothers me enough to know that there are people who get over the fence and enter my property going to look at what they want, does anyone have any advice on what to do?

      If OP only turns it on when there is a drone above their house, how would it be easy to get caught?

        You can’t really get a jammer to disable only a drone. The jamming will affect an area all around, likely affecting the neighbors’ wifi, bluetooth connections, and other radio signals like cellphones, for example.

        If that happens, it would get noticed, reported, and investigated very quickly.

        “Hey! Why does my drone keep malfunctioning every time I fly it over this one house in particular?”

          More like, “shit, I totally lost contact with my drone when I flew it over this home, and i never saw it again. Never gonna do that again”

      Did you also say that to folks who worked on the underground railroad?

      Do what’s right, not what’s legal.
